Description: Firstly I am a skeptic, a non-believer I am sure there is a rational explanation - but to me it was a genuine UFO.

I was attending a summer BBQ with family on a bright and clear day. There were no clouds in the sky at all. I happened to glance up at the sky and directly overhead was an object that seemed to be moving very quickly from west to east. I am very keen on aviation and happily watch low flying light aircraft or high altitude jets leaving vapor trails regularly; but this was different. It was a very unusual shape as well (see description). Firstly it was small in appearance which gave an illusion of it being at high altitude, but it was moving way to quickly at least many times quicker that a high altitude jet moving across the sky, secondly there were no vapor trails, thirdly there was no noise and lastly it traveled in a perfectly and unusually straight line. It was hard to gauge the height because of the reasons above and because it appeared so small to the naked eye. If it were at a lower altitude, say that of light aircraft that might explain the speed if it were a small jet but it was too small for any human to be inside and traveled without noise, and again it was traveling on an unusually perfect and steady course. Perhaps it was an experimental drone aircraft? Whatever it was it was like nothing I had seen before, having attended many air shows in my lifetime.

Color/Shape: It was a very clear blue sky....the object appeared to be hollow in the middle as it was the perfect match of the sky apart from the 'bars' that joined it all together which were arranged in a small rectangle with a diamond shape in the middle - no visible engine or exhaust trail, cockpit or wings - almost like a see-through kite.
